Smelling the fragrant aroma from the kitchen, Hui Mo's eyes lit up. He rubbed his hands and said, "Then give me two plates first! As for the other dishes, you can just pick the most popular ones and serve me a few plates. "
"Okay!" Seeing that he was a generous person, the boss's eyes narrowed with a smile. Seeing that the waiter who scolded him was still standing there with his head down, he slapped him and scolded in a low voice, "Hurry up and serve the guests tea. Are you blind? "
The waiter suddenly came to his senses and hurried to serve the tea.
Ning Shu glanced at the boss, "He was raised by his parents. It's better not to insult him like this."
"It's really this boy …" The boss paused for a moment and continued to flatter, "Okay, okay, okay. Whatever you say is good. Zhou Yang, after the tea is served, please fan the guests. Look at the hot weather. If I'm not wrong, you are the female detective Lady Ning who went to Xunfang TV to investigate the case, right? This lowly one has already seen your celestial beauty this morning. "
The merchant's mouth was indeed good at coaxing people to death. Ning Shu's mouth twitched when she heard that. She waved her hand and said, "… It's me, that's right. As for the celestial beauty, there's no need for that … Oh right, Boss, how long have you been running this restaurant?"
"It's been many years. My father set up a small stall here. Later, it gradually expanded. Now, it's a long-established restaurant in Xi City. The son of the assistant minister and the son of the prime minister are all my regular customers. My business is very good. Who knew that there would be a murder case. You see, I'm so worried that my mouth is burning. I'm sure that I'll lose a lot of money in the next few months. "
"I heard that the envoy sent someone to buy roast mutton here last night?"
"Yes, he said that the Seventh Prince wanted to eat it. I was so excited when I heard that. If the prince in the palace also said that it was good, then my restaurant's reputation would be improved. So, I immediately asked someone to send the roast mutton upstairs … Ah! Did the detective suspect that the envoy had a problem after eating our mutton? That's a huge injustice! "
Seeing that the boss was about to swear on his conscience, Ning Shu hurriedly stopped him. "Don't worry, we didn't find any problems with the roast mutton. We just want to ask, did the boss see any strange people around or did anything strange happen between last night and the incident today?"
"Strange people or strange things … Detective, I'll call all the waiters over and ask them for you." The boss waved his hand, and the waiters all gathered.
The waiters thought carefully, and one of them quickly said, "I saw one! Yesterday evening, the envoys held a banquet at Xunfang Terrace. There was a long queue of carriages and ceremonial carriages, attracting many onlookers. Coincidentally, I was soliciting customers at the entrance when I noticed a thin and small young master staring at them from the corner. At first, I thought he was also here to watch the fun. After watching, he should at least have a meal, right? So, I walked over and wanted to pull him in. Who knew that when I approached him, he pushed me away and ran away as if he was frightened. I came back and looked at myself in the mirror for a long time, but I didn't feel that I looked scary. "The waiter was glib with his words, and he joked with the others." Don't you think so? "
The others laughed and slapped him. The waiter who was holding a fan slipped his hand, and the fan fell. He quickly picked it up and apologized to Ning Shu and Hui Mo. Then, he was driven away by the boss in disgust and was replaced by another waiter.
This little episode was not worth paying attention to. Hui Mo asked, "Do you remember what that person looked like?"
"He was wearing a curtain hat, so I couldn't see clearly. I only remember that he wasn't tall, almost as tall as me. "The waiter pointed at his ears." The skin on his hands was quite white, just like a girl's. There was also a fragrance on his body. It was already evening, and the sky was dark. Not many people still wear curtain hats, and they weren't afraid of tripping. I thought it was strange at that time, so I paid attention to him. "
So tall, fragrance on his body, and fear of men. Ning Shu thought for a while. These three characteristics were basically consistent with E 'er. It seemed that she didn't go back to her hometown at noon yesterday!
